they stand before each other. she reaches out and lays her hand upon his skin. he shivers and collapses beneath her touch. his cries make her ache so much. he doesnt know what to do. she tells him he does. but he just cant bring himself to do what needs to be done. she looks at him crumpled at her feet and all she feels is love. he raises his eye begging for her presence and she smiles. this man is the one. he has always been. she knows it. he knows it. he is the measure. but tis not easy. it never is. all he needs is to be by her side. she knows this. she draws strength from it. for him tis a little more difficult. he loves another even more than he loves her. and he can not leave this one. tis his flesh. his blood. his very reason for being. she understands. respects him for it. she always has. but she can not forget the love she feels for him. and he can not forget what he feels for her. the love she gives. the love he so desires. from her. and that is his dilemma. it crushes him under an unseen weight. but there are two people that feel it. that have always felt it.
hear my name
take a good look
this could be the day
hold my hand
lie beside me
i just need to say

    That's a line from the song "A Question" by Elvis Perkins.

    By the way, catefrancis, I don't ever give you enough credit but you often light this forum up with quality work and I always read it.

    I need to start dropping more comments in peoples' threads.
